What does the Code Archaeologist skill do?

It analyzes your codebase to find legacy patterns, helps you decide between refactoring or maintaining local consistency, and documents those decisions.

How does it help with technical debt?

By mapping old vs. new patterns, it prevents 'half-baked' refactors and ensures that every change is a deliberate architectural choice.

Can it generate documentation?

Yes, it specifically helps record the trade-offs of refactoring decisions in Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).

When should I use this skill?

Use it during code reviews, migrations, or when you encounter unfamiliar patterns in a legacy repository.

开发者工具

Identifies legacy code patterns and provides structured guidance for consistent refactoring or compatibility maintenance.

关于

Code Archaeologist helps developers navigate complex codebases by detecting outdated patterns and comparing them against modern standards. It prevents inconsistent refactors by forcing a conscious decision between global modernization and maintaining local consistency, ultimately documenting these technical choices through Architecture Decision Records (ADRs). This skill is essential for teams managing technical debt or migrating large-scale environments where maintaining architectural integrity is critical.
